result for starting the war

In the articles of the first treaty of Erzurum in 1823, in terms of determining the border strip of the two states and the geographical characteristics of the border points, it was not very clear and definite, and as it was said before, in the introduction of the treaty, it was only mentioned that the borders of the states should be the same as in the treaty in The time of Nader Shah has been determined In this way, the Ottoman border guards and the operators of the aggressive and expansionist policy of that government could get excuses to encroach and encroach on Iran's territory. Especially, the existence of border tribes and nomads who had the habit of camping and camping, facilitated the creation of such excuses. As a result of the good behavior of the Iranian government officials in Khorramshahr with the merchants and the facilities they provided for the export and import of commercial goods, the trade market of this port surpassed the port of Basra, which was next to the Shatt al-Arab and belonged to the Ottoman government, and the income of the Pasha of Baghdad, who was also in the territory of his government, he was reduced from Basra and the Pasha of Baghdad, whose name was Alireza Pasha at this time, was looking for an opportunity to strike at the active port of Iran

The beginning of the war between Iran and the Ottomans on the Khorramshahr front

When Muhammad Shah was besieging Herat in early 1838, Pasha of Baghdad seized the opportunity and attacked Khorramshahr. The ruler and the local and collective garrison defended the natives of Iran manfully, but they were defeated by the Pasha's land and sea corps and suffered many casualties. The Ottoman army, as was their unsavory way, looted the city and killed a group of men and took some of the women and girls living in Khorramshahr and Bani Ka'b as captives Muhammad Shah, after hearing the news of the invasion of the Ottoman army into Iran, in early Sha'ban 1838 AH, Mirza Jafar Khan Moshir al-Dawlah (former Mushir al-Mulk), the former ambassador of Iran to the Ottoman court, along with Hossein Khan Ajodanbashi, who was the envoy of England, France and Austria And he should go to Europe via Istanbul, he sent to Istanbul. Mushir al-Dawlah and Ajodanbashi arrived in Istanbul in 1838 and met Sultan Mahmud II The ambassador of Iran asked the chancellor and foreign minister of the Ottoman government to compensate the damage caused to Khorramshahr and the people of that city and to punish the Pasha of Baghdad for his arbitrary actions and also to inform the sultan on behalf of Muhammad Shah that if Iran's proposal is accepted If not, "Iranian government will find this grudge and take back the loss of Khorramshahr"

End of War

Shortly before the death of Sultan Mahmud II, because Abdullah Pasha Baban Pasha of Sulaymaniyah and Iran's puppet had disobeyed the execution of the central government's order and looted the properties of Kurdistan's border residents several times, Reza Qoli Khan was appointed the governor of Kurdistan by the order of Muhammad Shah. He was expelled from Sulaymaniyah and appointed Mohammad Pasha (or Mahmoud Pasha), who had fled to Iran, to rule that city.While moving towards Sulaymaniyah, Reza Qoli Khan defeated some units of the Ottoman army in the city of Zor, but because of his pride and youth, he indulged in partying and revelry, and when he and his soldiers were resting and drinking, Abdullah Pasha He ran over them. Reza Qoli Khan was saved from that disaster with difficulty, but many of his soldiers perished and the ammunition and property of his army was taken over by Abdullah Pasha. The British Empire then pressured both sides to make peace, leading to the Second Treaty of Erzurum
